Step into the enchanting world of Zotz!
This delightful comedy stars the affable Tom Poston as Professor Jonathan Jones, a quirky academic who stumbles upon a mystical coin during an archaeological dig. This enchanted artifact grants him extraordinary powers, allowing him to inflict pain, slow down time, or even cause instant demise by uttering the word "Zotz!" while pointing at his target. As Professor Jones attempts to share his newfound abilities with the U.S. government, he finds himself dismissed as a madman. His antics soon attract unwanted attention from foreign agents eager to seize the coin for their own nefarious purposes. The film cleverly intertwines humor with Cold War themes, poking fun at the era's paranoia and espionage.
As a special treat, each attendee will receive a Zotz Coin, a plastic replica of the magical artifact featured in the film. This delightful gimmick, conceived by Castle, invites viewers to immerse themselves in the film's playful spirt and alter their own reality.
